    Network Engineer here and it has gotten much harder to get even a call back from a recruiter.

      How are you reaching out to opportunities?

      I’ve found that I get the most bites by hanging out in industry related slack groups.

          It might be worth checking in with old peers to see if anyone is in some interesting career communities on slack or discord. It can be a lot easier to network and connect with hiring managers in those environments.

            Appreciate the tip! I have found that at my level (IC4 close to IC5) it’s not so much what you know but whether you are a good culture fit.
